I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but I just need to gush for a
minute on how cool wxPython is.
I mostly do Windows & Linux driver work, so I don't actually get to do
much GUI stuff. However, I had a client this week who needed a
diagnostic app for a USB design we did for them. They're a tcl/tk shop,
but I'm not all that good in tcl, so I decided to do a wxPython
prototype first. In a matter of hours, I had the whole thing up and
running on Windows. They need it in Linux too, and the code ran first
time, without change, on Linux. The client is going to skip tcl and go
with the wxPython code.
That's pretty cool...

I completely agree… I wrote a little timesheet processing GUI app last year for the bookkeeper here at work (I’m no professional programmer by any stretch). I wrote the thing after hours at home on my Linux box, brought it in to work (where all the machines are XP) and it just worked right out of the box. Sure the project was simple but I didn’t have to change a single line of it. That was nice.
